Default Really a 1920 DWM?

This one has me puzzled: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=560381707

It's advertised as a 1920 DWM and the date on the chamber appears to be factory stamped. However, it has C/N proofs and no military acceptance stamps on the right side of the receiver. The sn is 767 with no suffix. Any good ideas?

I'm curious about this one because its Polizeischule Münster inventory number is only 33 away from that of the gun that got me started on my obsession with police markings.
